Two deities in a seated position are the central motif of this beautiful coin. They may represent the Great Lord Shiva and his wife Parvati, who are often depicted in iconography in a hieratic posture to emphasize their supernatural nature and encourage devotion on the part of the viewer. In its lovely setting this coin recalls the wealth and splendor of India's rich history. - (FJ.6442)
